I can't wait for you all to get this feeling...At the same time...I'm finding myself not really knowing what to do with myself..and I'm not really finished yet!!
I did take some pics of sewing the binding on so when I have time in the next few days, I will post a thread with the pics and some tips..for whatever those are worth :lol:

Never mind about that last part, because you already have the next one lined up!

Well I am just loggingin here to let you all know I have ended up quilting by hand the backing on, just QITD, found my machine couldnīt cope with the weight of it all. So far 16 blocks done. Its going quite quickly reckon it will take around 3 weeks to get it done. Lets say its keeping me out of mischief.

Well, Elle, there is something to be said for keeping YOU out of mischief! Just find some good oldie tv shows or movies, sit relax and quilt...that doesn't sound like bad duty to me!
I can't seem to sit still lately...too much going on. I have 2 sides left!
